After rebirth, I became a national teacher

However, they never expected it at this moment.

This time, they were really lucky.

After getting off the carriage, they found themselves outside a Taoist temple.

There were two Taoist nuns guarding the gate.

A pretty and gentle Taoist nun from the Taoist temple came forward and said:

"Senior Sister Huiyun is back!"

"The abbot has instructed that we take them to the West Garden to wash them, change their clothes, and then take them to the dining hall for dinner."

"Why are you still tied up?"

The one in charge of the shopping, Aunt Huiyun, said:

"They tied them up because they said they were afraid they would run away. I didn't want to cause any trouble, so I didn't untie them. I'll leave these children to you. I'll go report to the abbot."

The gentle nun agreed and immediately ordered them to be untied.

Another aunt who had a cold face all the way but was not too old, spoke like a firecracker:

"Senior Sister Huijing, you don't know how despicable those people in the Charity Bureau are! Children this young are being whipped to work, and they are definitely not being fed enough. Look how skinny they are!"

Only then did everyone realize that this Taoist nun who looked very kind was called Huijing.

And that aunt with a cold face and a gloomy face all the way was actually speaking up for them!

"Don't be afraid, everyone. Once you arrive at our Cihang Temple, no one will bully you anymore. Now, everyone, come with me and take a shower, change clothes, and then have dinner, okay?"

Aunt Huijing's tone was so gentle, and her eyes were full of pity and love when she looked at them.

This Cihang Temple seemed to be completely different from what they imagined.

After entering the Taoist temple, they were arranged to use the bathroom, with separate rooms for boys and girls.

Many people took a hot bath and used soap for the first time in their lives.

They helped each other to scrub their bodies clean and used combs to comb the lice out of their hair. A nun from outside brought them a pile of clothes.

Each person had a set of clothes, inner and outer. The inner one was made of soft cotton cloth, and the outer one was an extremely thick cotton robe. They were all new and had no patches at all.

After leaving the warm bathroom, there were several braziers outside, which were still warm.

After their hair was dried, everyone was taken to the dining hall to eat.

Each person had a bowl of meaty porridge and a large spoonful of steamed egg custard.

After eating, my stomach felt full and warm, and very comfortable.

The gentle Aunt Huijing told them that the temple master was going to establish a Salesian Hall in Cihang Temple, which would gradually take in many orphans.

They are the first batch.

What I mainly need to do on weekdays is to help my aunts take care of my younger brothers and sisters, and occasionally do some small things within my ability.

As long as they are obedient, no one will beat or scold them.

The temple master also said that from now on they would not only be able to eat their fill every day, but each of them would also have an egg.

You can eat meat once every five days.

Those who perform well can get a monthly salary ranging from twenty to one hundred wen.

During the holidays every month, I can go to the city with my aunts to play and buy delicious and fun things.

This kind of life was something I never dared to dream of before.

Even before they became orphans, they didn't have such a good life.

I am so lucky to be brought back by Cihang Temple!

It must be the blessing of their parents in heaven that gives them such good luck.

Lying on the large bunk bed prepared by Cihang Temple, the children were covered with warm quilts and their pillows were wet with their tears.

But this time, I slept more peacefully than ever before.

From then on, they finally didn't have to wander around and live in fear anymore.

that's nice!

Huiyun handed the children from the Charity Bureau to Huijing and was about to go to the abbot to report when she was told something by her subordinates in the reception hall. As a result, she was worried when she went to find Chen Qingzhu.

"Master! Today, someone from the reception hall came to report that someone gave her five taels of silver and asked if there were any wealthy and powerful pilgrims who frequently visited Cihang Temple."
